"If you build it, they will stream." The inaugural IndieBOOM! Festival proved just that.

Our slate of 38 short films from all over the world drew tens of thousands of viewers from Dec. 18 - Jan. 5. And together they streamed hundreds of hours of video via our website and the BKOD Roku channel. Our filmmakers got to promote their work while growing their fanbase and our audience got to discover, support and share amazing films. And our screenplay competition helped emerging writers get industry attention. (More info on our prizes here.)

At IndieBOOM!, every view is a vote. So we tallied up every play and every minute watched of each of our selections to come up with our winners. And our jury of industry pros gave their own award to their favorite film of the festival.

Congratulations to all our winners, and all our films... you helped IndieBOOM! launch with a bang!
